Organizing

Organizing and managing files in ACDSee Pro

In addition to its browsing, viewing, and editing capabilities, ACDSee Pro features integrated management tools you can use to

organize and sort your images and media files. These tools include batch functions (tools that can alter or adjust multiple files at the

same time), category and rating systems, and a powerful database to hold all of your important image information.

You can use the ACDSee Pro batch functions to rename, resize, rotate, add EXIF information, and adjust the exposure of a single

image, a group of images, or the contents of an entire folder all at once. With the category and rating systems, you can create a

virtual folder structure, and use it to find related images and media files with a single click.

ACDSee Pro displays file properties and image information in an easily accessible Properties pane that you can use to directly add

and edit file information, including metadata and database content. You can add an author, description, notes, and keywords to your

files, and adjust the category and rating assignments at the same time.

Organizing with the Organize pane

The Organize pane is one of the most useful panes in ACDSee Pro as it provides so many ways to organize, sort, group, search for,

and manage your files.
